Mary Mitchell is a race-baiting bigot, a moron, and a downright distastefull person, IMO. I've read a ton of her articles in my life and never once did I say, "Well there is an intelligent woman who should be taken seriously".

I read her articles only because I want to see what stupid **** she's saying now.

She is a kook.... Not worthy of anyones time of day, not even Obama's

Unless I am missing something here.

Nope, spot on.

She's a small fry person that barely is worth mentioning or drawing attention to do. It seems DC main point is that Obama didn't speak against that smear, while he's spoken against others, thus its true.

Which is extremely flawed logic.

One, no politician has time to find every single solitary smear and comment on it.

Two, her smear wasn't exactly picked up by a ton of the press or even by the republicans. It wasn't repeated again and again. It was just one lunatic crackpot extremist making an ignorant race baiting comment. Most of the things his "smear team" countered was things being used by the republicans and/or were getting major media attention.

Three, because of the above reasoning he shouldn't bring attention to it because all it does is lend the woman credability by being talked about and gives the comments attention.

Invalid argument.

This was not an argument, and was never intended to be one, if anything I am only arguing for a right:

“Since Obama did not fight the smears of Mary Mitchell, and the suspected lying racist still has her job, I have a right to suspect the majority of blacks in this country must be bad and Obama is a liar.”

Since I am suspecting, therefore, that is not an argument coming to a conclusion other than I am suspecting. It was a statement of my right to suspect, I cannot come to a conclusion in the form of a truth until Obama does something. The use of the word “since” does not demand an argument follow.

This was not an argument, and was never intended to be one:

“Since it has never been refuted by Obama, I see no reason not to take Mary Mitchell at her word about Obama being a liar.”

That is a statement of my intention to put more trust in Mary Mitchell than in Obama with regard to who is telling the truth.

What the truth is can only be determined by the actions Obama takes in the future. So no argument can be made by me on this matter.

Mary Mitchell was the one making an argument that Obama is a liar and most black people understand the game.

Until I get a valid refutation of Mary Mitchell’s argument I have no reason not to suspect and “Shhhh! As the world waits for Obama to voice his opinion on Gaza...”

That does not mean I am saying Mary Mitchell’s argument is true. I see no reason not to pretend to accept Mary Mitchell’s argument.

You said: “It seems DC main point is that Obama didn't speak against that smear, while he's spoken against others, thus its true.”

The operative word in my first post was the word “Really?”

That is not stating something is true, it is just questioning and then providing some facts from which to form premises.

Most black people are bad and Obama is a liar. The premise for that is Mary Mitchell‘s argument, and only most Blacks and Obama can refute it by actions. Inaction cannot refute her argument.

*****

Learn to read, then you might be able to make a valid argument and know the difference between arguments and statements.

Valid point taken. Ignoring ignorance cannot refute an ignorant argument either, that is why the Graft Zyphlin is resorting to baiting and trolling with “idiotic, backassward logic;” I have to walk on egg shells around here.
